BRM's Bunny Thread! ❤️🐰❤️

Oh- well mighigan rarely gets past that through the summer and if it does, then we just bring them indoors.

How many kits do they usually have and how many do you loose? (Roughly)

Mine have about 2-5 on average. And in each litter 25% are peanuts unless I use a BUD/G parent.

Is there a very good business for them?

Is there a very good business for them?

As far as people wanting them. I know Hollands don't breed of birth well, but people love the breed as a pet.

Is there a very good business for them?

Yes, people want them, especially the show quality ones. The market for pets is good as well, but it's hard to breed for the demand. And an ugly ND is almost impossible to get rid of.

So would you just not suggest the breed? I love their tiny size but...

I wouldn't suggest it to just anyone. Someone with experience, time, lots of money, and the cage space for 7+ rabbits would probably enjoy them.
They're more like pets than a productive breed, you probably won't make your money back unless you breed heavily and show.

Thank you for letting me know. I want to breed them so terribly bad, but I may want to hold off.

Has anyone heard of lionlops? Lionhead X Mini Lops?
